Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a high-temperature resistant multi-port industrial-grade PoE switch for mining areas, including a switch body 1, which is composed of a shell 2 and a chip motherboard 3. The chip motherboard 3 is fixedly installed inside the shell 2, so that the shell 2 can be used to protect and stably place the chip motherboard 3 for use.

[0023] The upper and lower ends of the outer casing 2 are respectively fixedly connected to a first protective plate 4 and a second protective plate 5 by screws. The first protective plate 4 and the second protective plate 5 are both trapezoidal metal plates, and mounting holes 9 are correspondingly opened at the four corners of the first protective plate 4 and the second protective plate 5. The first protective plate 4 and the second protective plate 5 are fixedly installed on the outer casing 2 by screws passing through the mounting holes 9, so as to maintain a stable connection between the first protective plate 4 and the second protective plate 5. At the same time, several guide grooves 10 are correspondingly opened on the first protective plate 4 and the second protective plate 5 to facilitate better heat dissipation. A label plate 41 is provided at the center of the outer wall of the first protective plate 4 to facilitate the labeling of information of the switch body 1.

[0024] The outer casing 2 has mounting grooves 6 on both sides. The mounting grooves 6 are square groove structures, and one end of the mounting grooves 6 is open. The mounting grooves 6 are correspondingly opened at the outer edges of the outer walls on both sides of the outer casing 2, so as to facilitate the installation and stable placement of the first side plate 7 and the second side plate 8.

[0025] A first side plate 7 and a second side plate 8 are installed in the mounting slot 6 on both sides of the outer casing 2. Both the first side plate 7 and the second side plate 8 are U-shaped metal plates. Each side plate 7 and the second side plate 8 has a locking block 12 on its inner wall. The first side plate 7 and the second side plate 8 are embedded in the mounting slot 6 through the locking block 12, which can keep the connection between the first side plate 7 and the second side plate 8 stable. At the same time, a wall-mounting component 11 is fixedly connected to the first side plate 7 by screws. A limiting plate 81 is pressed and connected to the second side plate 8 by screws. Eight network cable slots 82 are provided on one side of the limiting plate 81, and eight optical port slots 83 are provided on the other side of the limiting plate 81. This further increases the versatility of the switch body 1.

[0026] The wall-mounting assembly 11 consists of a mounting plate 111, a placement slot 112, and a mounting rod 113. The mounting plate 111 is a U-shaped metal plate structure with a protrusion on one inner wall for easy positioning and fixing. The other side of the mounting plate 111 has a recessed placement slot 112. The mounting rod 113 is a triangular elastic rod with one end fixed to the inner wall of the placement slot 112, and the other end of the mounting rod 113 is movably placed inside the outer edge of the placement slot 112. The elastic extension and retraction of the mounting rod 113 can further stabilize the switch body 1 on both sides of the cabinet or wall, making it more practical.

[0027] One end of the outer casing 2 is provided with a main network cable interface 21, and a ribbon cable slot 22 is installed on one side of the main network cable interface 21 and on the outer casing 2, so that the connected data cable can be used for transmission connection and ensure the normal use of the switch body 1.

[0028] Working Principle: In use, the chip motherboard 3 is first stably installed inside the outer casing 2. Simultaneously, a first side plate 7 and a second side plate 8 are embedded in the mounting slots 6 on both sides of the outer casing 2. A limiting plate 81 is placed on the second side plate 8, and eight network cable slots 82 and eight optical port slots 83 are correspondingly provided on the limiting plate 81, thereby increasing the usability of the switch body 1. A wall-mounting assembly 11 is fixedly connected to the first side plate 7 with screws, allowing the switch body 1 to be installed sideways using the elastic levers 113 and the locking plates 111 in the wall-mounting assembly 11, enhancing its practicality. A first protective plate 4 and a second protective plate 5 are fixedly connected to the upper and lower surfaces of the outer casing 2 with screws. Several grooved guide channels 10 are evenly arranged on the outer walls of both the first protective plate 4 and the second protective plate 5. This not only improves the overall corrosion resistance of the switch body 1 but also further enhances its heat dissipation effect, making it more suitable for the harsh environment of mining areas compared to traditional switches.
